FRIDAY. QUIOBEB 5. 1938

TIMELY WARNING

The current issue of the Quebec Omcial Bulletin of the Roads De- partment has some timely advice to motorists, which is equally applic- able in every Provnce. Nearly every you, says the Bulletin, in the few weeks following the fall openllifl 0f the schools, there occurs a series of aocide ‘va to children which bring sorrow to the families of the vic- tims and are a source of harassing regret to those who have caused them, even imoluntarliy.

It is of course mostly in the towns that this class of accident is fre- quent. More often than not the schools are situated in the vicinity of streets, if not on the very streets themselves where traffic is dense; rarely do schools powers play- grounds where the children can congregate before or after the hour of opening and closing of class. The children therefore pass directly from the classroom to the street or vioe versa; and with their habitual \nd natural carelessness, their de- drejor fun-making, they are much given to forgetting the‘ lessons given them on the subject o! prud- moo.

It remains therefore for the mot-

rmrket is certainly not due to any efforts which the late Mackenzie King Government made during its nine years of power. The manner in which our farmers "benefited" by Mr. King's policy may b9 ill!"- trated by the following Canadian Press item of Feb. 20, 1930. It is dated from Washington, and reads:

"'I‘he Senate today went through the agricultural tariffs from cheese to chicory and boosted rates on more than a dozen farm products."

l That was after nine years of fruit- less Liberal overtures and was but one of the many tariff increases on Canadian ‘asrlflllf-“Ifi PIO- duois impvflod by the United States during the Mackenzie King

(regime. Today, as our contempor-

‘ary says, our farmers have access to

‘the United States for their potatoes

and turnips. There is therefore no

point in its agrument that the Ben- inett policies closed that market, or that the protection of the home limarket and the extension of Can-

‘adian trade in Bknpire channels. which the Bennett policies admit- tedly achleved, have been anything

-but beneficial to the agricultural trade of this Province or of the Dominion in general. '

Notes By The Way

Expulsion of four German cor- respondents by the Foreign Office press department in Moscow will

from Germany, on the ground that persecution and unjustified discrim- lnatlOn directed against the writers has become intolerable. The expul- sion of the Germans, it was ex- plained, was not to be ascribed to improper conduct, but was intend- ed as a. reprisal for the treatment accorded the Soviet correspondents in Germany. '

Complete compilation of indmt- rlal statistics prepared by the Bu- reau cf Stafsbics gives 246.000 as the number of wage-eamers- who have been added to Canadian pay- rolls since the first of April. This represents a ratio of gain exceed- ing that of any other leading country, not excepting the United States. which is experimenting so hopefully with Presidnet Roosevelt's NRA. scheme of restoration.

INANE CRITIEISM

It would tax our contemporaryk hlonuily to make more misstate- Ilnh h a single editorial column Inn it oucoeede‘ in doing yesterday. first it quoted The Guardian as having stated that if the Bennett Government went to the countf! "it would certainly be defeated." No ca‘ statement ever appeared in Ihe Guardian. Next it quoted Premier Bennett as promising to "usher in an economic millennium." Mr. Bennett made no such promise. It then attributes to Hon. Dr. Mac- Milla.n, Acting Premier, a statement which appeared in its own columns as a Canadian ‘Press item, in which I-Ion. Dr. MscMillan is nowhere quoted. The item in question had to do with the Provinces application for unemployment relief. An en- deavor is made to show that the re- quest for such relief was an admis- sion that conditions are getting worse instead of better. Cur con- temporary forgets that in the first year of the Bennett administration the Lea Government also applied for relief. Its own contention at that time was that there was no unem- ployment; but this was flatly con- trsdicted by Mr. A. E. Maclaan. MP, and Mr. J. P. Mclntyre was equally emphatic when he went to Ottawa looking for the money. The next contention advanced in yesterday's Liberal organ is that be- cause our fanners anticipate selling their potatoes and turnips in Uni- ted States this year, therefore the Empire trade treaties are valueless. That is not the opinion of the new Liberal government in Nova Scotia, which is sending a trade commie- lioner to Great Britain to take ad- vantage of the opportunities opened by the Bennett Governmmt in the British market. Nor is it the opinion of our bacon and poultry producers, who have obtained sub- vtantial preferences as a result of lest year's Imperial Conference at Ottawa. The fact that our potato growers

‘avowod purpose of pushing the icause of peace still further. The hope of British statesmen is to compose exising differences between Germany and France and thus to pave the way for vast internation- al economies in offmsive weapons on land, at sea, and in the air.

On the eve of the Conference, ‘British Minister! asked the ‘United ;States Government if it could see ‘its way clear to postpone the laying down of. large, six-inch gun cruisers during the life of the Dlmu amcnt Conference, or at least pending further discussions. The reply of the Wiashingfmi Administration is that it cannot see its way clear to delay ship construction or to suspend the laying down of s/ny protected ships.

Ever since the Washington and London Naval Qonfcrcnces, the cam Govonunent has nought to prvvail upm the American authori- ties to build seven-thousand ton light cruiser: rather than ten- thoueand-‘ton cruisers. It has tried to lit fin Washington Govern- ment to am in line with this pro- gram of liznitstion. The British have insisted that seven-thousand-ton, cruisers an large enough a s» the‘ patrol work and police work desired of them. The United States naval authori- ties have alwaye maintained, and still maintain, that they must have ten-thousand-ton cruisers because thq/ have not as many naval bases in different parts of the world as Great Britain. The answer, com- ments the Mull and Empire, surely is that the British Empire is a world-wide llimpre, to which the sea-roads are as vital as are rail- way: to the Unitad States. The American Republic, established as it is aetridc a vast continent with broad oceans on either hand, has no such need for sea. armaments g5 the Briiteh Isles and the daughter states and dependencies.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Among other dismissals for “polit- ical partisanship" by the new Lib- eral Government of Nova Scotla is that of Miss Ann Allen, superintend- ent of nurses at the Kentville Sen- atorium. The dismissed nurse had an enviable war record. Winner of the coveted Royal Red Cross, high- est award in nursing, she was pre- sented with the decoration by King George. She was mentioned by su- Dou,‘ Haig in despatches, and won the Mons Medal, the British War Medal, and the Victorymedal. The Canadian legion has demanded

Miss Allen's reinstatement and the
